Looks like someone will be getting liquored up tonight!
She has the nomination. She’ll also lose by 20 pts to Folsom in the fall. She’s the only one he can credibly attack on the PACT issue.
Erwin could have at least attacked Folsom on that although his overall vote would have been limited because just one play of his hurricane comments would cost him Mobile County. Ivey though, it will be a disaster. She is the villain of the PACT people and for good reason. I really wish we could displace her from the ticket because she will be the most unpopular person in the state of either party on a ticket and she’ll be on ours. I would have rather this not happened.
